This was the best butter chicken I have ever tasted. So easy and quick to cook. Next time I will cut the chicken pieces up much larger as they were shredded a bit. Flavour is amazing.
What different sorts of yoghurt can I use?

Loved this recipe. Taste was amazing! Whole family...
Loved this recipe. Taste was amazing! Whole family of fussy eaters liked it too! Sauce left over so would like to make it bucket next time...not sure how yet so suggestions would be appreciated.
This one of the best butter
This one of the best butter chicken dishes I've made so far. The recipe is also easy and there are relatively few ingredients. I added a half teaspoon of cayenne pepper for added flavour. It will definitely be a regular dish in our household
My chicken was slightly
My chicken was slightly shredded as well. Heaps of sauce. My partner didn't enjoy and didn't finish his meal
Delicious! A real winner
Delicious! A real winner with all of the family. Fed a family of 7, with seconds.
Great flavours.
Loved this one. After
Loved this one. After reading the other comments about the sauce being too runny I grabbed a handful of raw cashews and grinded them down, then set them aside as the first step. Then added them in at the end. It thickened the sauce up beautifully. I too used chicken breast, I left them in big pieces and even though it shredded a bit because the pieces were bigger it wasn't too bad.
This is the best butter
This is the best butter chicken recipe I have tried so far and my whole (very fussy) family love it. I use breast chicken and cut it a bit bigger than normal and only cook it for 20 mins to prevent shredding. As suggested by one of the consultants at a cooking demo I went to, once its all cooked and you have put it in the thermo server to serve you can add a handful of fried shallots and that magically thickens up the sauce (it doesnt change the taste at all) Thanks for the recipe
This was fantastic, the whole
This was fantastic, the whole family loved it, I didn't have garam Marsala so just left it out, I loved that it was a bit runny and very saucy great with rice!
Mine turned out extremely
Mine turned out extremely watery.. The flavour that was there was nice but because it was too watery the flavour was very diluted.. we are going to try and adjust the recipe to get the most flavour out of it. Thanks for the recipe
Tastes great. I used chicken
Tastes great. I used chicken thight and left it on soft speed reverse and my chicken was fine , no Shredding. I did find the sauce to be a quite runny so i added some corn flour for the last minute
made this tonight and it
made this tonight and it shredded to
but after reading some of the comments it might be because I used breasts as well. Definitely going to try but use thighs next time
Easy and tasty, i didnt
Easy and tasty, i didnt marinade with much time so next time will do it the night before
I halved the ingredients and
I halved the ingredients and it didn't work out great. Maybe I shouldn't have halved the spices as it was a bit lacking in flavour. It was also quite watery and the chicken got a bit shredded.
Yes, my chicken shredded. Do
Yes, my chicken shredded. Do I care? NO! This was absolutely scrumptious!!! So very yummy and I'm never buying the stuff in a tin again. The kids loved it and I feel like I've been at an Indian restaurant. House smells yummy too. A weekly recipe for us now!
The whole family loved it -
The whole family loved it - lovely taste. Will definitely be making this dish again.
:bigsmile:Super easy and
Super easy and really yummy. As a lifetime of being a 'non-cooker', I found this recipe really easy to get through (I used thighs as per all the comments have recommended), and all my guests loved it. We love a bit of spice so I will add a few chillies next time, but that's a personal choice, and the base recipe here is great for an all-rounder dish - the kids loved it too.
never buying butter chicken
never buying butter chicken again!
I used chicken thigh and no
I used chicken thigh and no shredded chicken here. Amazing flavours. Thanks. I'd add some vegetables next time (not authentic I know) because there was quite a bit of liquid.
I've only had my Thermomix 3
I've only had my Thermomix 3 weeks so still getting use to it I don't eat red meat so chicken for me is always on the menu and I only eat breast meat no bones or any other part of the chicken when I cooked it the breast meat was fine turned out perfectly
fantastic recipe !.. made it

:) This was beautiful but in
This was beautiful but in my family it only fed 3 will ad this to my recipes
I am hoping to try this
I am hoping to try this recipe this week, there are a few comments about the chicken shredding, my Consultant told me always use THIGH in the bowl and BREAST in the veroma. I'm wondering if the people that had shredded chicken used breast in this recipe?
Busy Mumma of 5 tackling it one day at a time
OMG - this is the BEST!! My
OMG - this is the BEST!! My kids never, ever ask for seconds and this time they did. Chicken didn't shred, used first half soft stir, then 1 speed. No Probs. I also added one potato cut into small cubes after the first 10 mins. This is a permanent in my household - thanks!!!
I cooked on reverse speed
I cooked on reverse speed soft throughout the recipe and cut the cooking time in the first stage (cooking the chicken mix in the butter) to about 4-5 minutes - that was where the chicken started to look like it might shred.
Once the tomato puree etc was in the bowl it held together well.
My chicken pieces were on the larger side of 3cm .... Chicken didn't shred and it was very nice.
First time using my
First time using my thermo...absolutely delicious
Coocked this tonight and
Coocked this tonight and chick was shredded i alternated between spoon and speed 1 both on reverse. The only thing i can put it down to is that i used breast chicken instead of thigh? is there any way around having shreded chicken?
So yummy! This is a keeper.
So yummy! This is a keeper.
This went really well - I
This went really well - I just wish it was a tad sweeter?? I didn't use sweet paprika - would that be the reason?? Otherwise absolutely awesome, great colour, great flavours
Like previous comments my
Like previous comments my chicken was also shredded. Very nice flavours.
I'm off to cook this tonight.
I'm off to cook this tonight. I'm hoping it won't shred the chicken like above comment. I think it should be find reverse speed 1 as that is what Risotto is done at and it does not mush up the rice.?
My chicken breast chopped to
My chicken breast chopped to 3 cm cubes was shredded after only a few minutes even though I followed the recipe to the T. As I a new user to Thremomix I lost confidence, bailed and used the stove top to resurrect the mushed dish. I was definetly following the directions as had read the blogs prior to cooking ! Flavour was great thought, thank you.
Got this bubbling away in the
Got this bubbling away in the thermie at the moment and the smell is sensational. Sneaked a little taste and its is wonderful. Hubby and kids will be thrilled with this when they get home today.
Hi Ros. Yes I did have it in
Hi Ros.
Yes I did have it in reverse but noticed on another recipe that it says soft speed reverse instead of reverse speed 1. Not sure how much difference that would make but will try it next time.
Hi Brimlo. I wonder if you
Hi Brimlo. I wonder if you noticed the REVERSE instruction in step 4? If you weren't in reverse, it would be understandable that the chicken got shredded. Maybe make bigger chunks next time??

First time cooking Tmx butter
First time cooking Tmx butter chicken. Great flavors. Unsure why the chicken ended up shredded but still tasted great.
